Pancreatic Puzzles and Bagels: Investigating Cancer with Dr. Mike Feigin

The Fancy Labcoat Guild

Prepare for an episode of the Fancy Labcoat Guild with an AMA in our Discord where we're going to jump into the world of pancreatic cancer research with Dr. Mike Feigin, an Associate Professor and Director of Experimental Therapeutics at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. Known for his investigative pursuit of understanding the gene regulation mechanisms that drive tumor growth, Dr. Feigin shares his insights on how commonly prescribed medications can impact cancer progression.

But it's not just about the hard science. Dr. Feigin opens up his scientific journey, including a hilarious tale of his first cloning attempt, serving as a reminder that all of us make rookie mistakes.

When the lab coat is put away, Dr. Feigin is a family man who enjoys hiking the trails of western NY and indulging in a love for bagels 🥯. In an alternate world where cancer is cured, he'd be opening his own bakery. This conversation takes us on a journey from the intricacies of cancer genetics to the simple pleasure of a well-made bagel.

Join us as we explore the various features of pancreatic cancer, discuss and talk with this dedicated man of science!
